computer is infected with virus/worm/trojan and i use the
school computer to access my email address then later on

Hi,
You've got a range of possibilities there.
If that 'school computer' has a critter, and if you were in a saved address
book or your address was saved in an html format in a document, it might get
a surprise package. Yahoo has some pretty good virus protection on their
email. I wouldn't worry too much.
